Re: Will 71-72 Chevy Grill fit 71-71 GMC?

No, your 71 GMC fenders are different than 71 Chevrolet fenders.

67 GMC / Chevy - single year fender without marker light hole.
68-72 GMC / 68 Chevy - same fender with marker light hole.
69-72 Chevy - Different than prior years, with marker light hole (of course)

The difference is the front leading edge of the fender.

Post #22 will show a picture. Your 71 GMC doesn't have the indented / recessed area needed for the 71-72 grille shell to fit correctly.
